A Revolution in Boxer-Manager Relationships
DALLAS, TEXAS, Februarie 11, 2015 – In an unprecedented move, boxing manager and owner of AC Sports Management, Adrian Clark, has issued a challenge to professional boxers all over the world in the form of a free legal document: The Boxer-Manager Agreement now allows professional fighters to contract the services of their managers.

 

 

Tipic, în box, the manager has the boxer under contract for a minimum of three years. The Boxer-Manager Agreement clarifies the role and duties of the manager, giving both parties the opportunity to evaluate one another fairly and to ensure the boxer is in the executive position.

 

“I want guys to develop a mindset of a CEO,” Clark said, “because that’s what they are. They must understand what it is to be in a position of power and able to call shots and make tough executive decisions in their careers.”

 

Clark’s main concern is that many boxers may be working as if they are the subordinate, unlike other executives. “Name me one CEO that is under contract to his spokesperson, or to anyone he is paying” Clark said.

 

Clark, currently in his sixth year of boxing management, has been selected as one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 (Sport) pentru 2016. He has just released his first book, denumirea “eu: Un ghid pentru tinerii antreprenori,” available from Amazon.

 

“As a business owner, I do what makes sense in regards to business, Clark said. “I have been in the boxing business long enough to see that the common boxer-manager arrangement does not make sense. I’d like to think this document is a game-changer in the sport of boxing for the athletes. It is now up to the athletes to exercise this agreement and be in more control of their careers and who is representing them.”

 

The Boxer-Manager Agreement is available for download on Clark’s website (www.ACsportsm.com/manifesto.html), gratuit. Clark has recorded a video there encouraging fighters to download the document. He also urges them to further educate themselves on the business they are in.

 

A graduate of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Clark currently manages seven clients, including former world title challenger Jerry Belmontes, former IBO World champion Will Tomlinson, and James de la Rosa, who has a Martie 12 showdown with David Lemieux in Montreal, Quebec. La vârsta 25, Clark was certified by the National Basketball Players Association as a “Player Agent” (Sports Agent). Clark founded AC Sports Management, LLC, în 2012.

Numele și valoarea nominală sunt foarte esențiale atunci când încearcă să sportivi de piață astfel încât atunci când mă vezi, vezi băieții mei. Când vedeți băieții mei, tu mă vezi, chiar dacă nu suntem acolo, sub forma fizică, noi toți reprezenta reciproc. Vizionarea documentarului ma obligat să se oprească și admira ceea ce am făcut și ce acești sportivi fac,” Said Clark

Am sări De la Rosa liber de la Don King, apoi l-am prins 2 lupte mari la Showtime PPV și HBO. El a făcut mai mulți bani în 2 lupte decât întreaga sa carieră combinat. I negotiated a world title shot fight for Belmontes, câștigând l mai mulți bani din cariera sa. Am lucrat pentru a obține Ray Ximenez gratuit de la un contract de promovare rău și activ din nou, în drum spre lupte mai mari.

“Răbdarea este cheia în afaceri box. Trebuie să înțelegere că sincronizarea este totul și muncă forțată nu este calea. AJ Galante {care este, probabil, singurul manager de la 20 lui} și am înțeles că suntem tineri anii de sânge în sport. În 5 sau 10 ani vom fi Al Haymon de, Frank Espinoza și Cameron Dunkin lui… Baieti nume mare și rețele se va uita să lucreze prin noi.
